I'm not sure what you mean, so if I email cablemystreet@virginmedia.co.uk there is a good chance that my street will get connected?

If you could get a couple of people down the street as well then this will help getting the spotters or new build people down the street

How much would it cost VM to cable my street?

Also how many people would I need to get for VM to consider cabling my street?

It depends on how much they have do dig ie grass tarmac how many houses they can get .If they are going to do it they send the sales team just to see how many might take it up .A small close in this area was missed out about 10 houses 8 people sent a email in we wnet and had a look and within a month it was done 8 happy customers

For a normal situation how much would I have to pay to persuade them to get it cabled. Also I use the word "street", but would it be the entire street that is in question ie from where the street starts to where it ends. Also is the VM postcode checker accurate, so I can see where the last cabled house is?

Hi There

Not sure how you are progressing with your request for a new cable connection but I would be delighted to help in anyway. If you require any help then please get in touch.

Thanks, would it be possible if I could send you some information so you could look it up in a database or something. So you can see why my street wasn't connected in the first place. I really want to get cable connected to my street and I will do almost anything to make that happen.
